Discover Louth’s Beautiful Blue Flag Beaches

County Louth is home to three Blue Flag beaches, each recognised for their excellent water quality, cleanliness, and outstanding natural beauty. Awarded annually, the Blue Flag is a globally respected mark of quality, and we’re proud that Louth’s beaches have retained this status every year since 2009.

Clogherhead Beach
A favourite for both locals and visitors, Clogherhead Beach offers sweeping sandy shores and stunning views of the Irish Sea. It’s perfect for long walks, swimming, and soaking up the fresh coastal air. The nearby village adds to its charm, with a traditional fishing harbour and welcoming atmosphere.

Port Beach
Port Beach is a peaceful and unspoiled stretch of coastline, ideal for those seeking a quieter seaside escape. Its clean waters and natural surroundings make it a great spot for swimming, picnicking, or simply relaxing while enjoying the scenic beauty of Louth’s coastline.

Templetown Beach
Located on the Cooley Peninsula, Templetown Beach is known for its wide sandy expanse and panoramic views across Dundalk Bay. It’s a wonderful choice for families, with plenty of space for beach games and safe swimming conditions.
